blog 4 : Mrs Pamela - li xinyan (Effy) - generation Y

      Born as post-90s, we are a digital generation, who carry electronic gadgets everywhere we go. Notebook, iphone, ipad, etc, many of us couldn't go on a single day without them. On the street, or in the subway train  or on the bus, you can always see teenagers glued to their handphones or other gadgets and never seem to lose interest.
       On the contrary, our parents, the elder generation are not so dependent on digital products. Take my parents as example, my father prefers reading newspapers in his free time and my mother enjoys cooking and shopping. None of these activities has much to do with electronic products.
      Of course they watch TV and listen to radio, which are now considered the elder generation of  electronic product. But TVs and radios seem to have less and less attraction to us, for they are traditional appliances just like fridges but our taste is for the modern ones.
      The elder generation also use computers and cellphones, but mostly for work and daily communication with family and friends, while we use them a great part for entertainment such as watching movies and videos, listening to music; and social network, such as chatting on Facebook and QQ.
      In a word, digital products have occupied a big part of our lives. Living in the digital world is one of the most different experiences in life we have from our parents.
